Abstract: High-performing bio-based surfactants from renewable waste streams for the circular economy The EIC Transition project PureSurf aims to bridge the gap between abundant renewable resources and the demand for sustainable, affordable, high-performance surfactants. Guided by the inherent structural features of renewable building blocks and green chemistry principles, a library of over 80 novel compounds has been generated that show significant performance improvements over their industrialised counterparts.
